We visited the city
hall of Federal Way that morning. We first take a quick look in the
registration office of the city, and then visited the police department in the
same building. We had Ann, an 18-year-old girl in the explorer unit, as our
tour guide, and she kindly answered our questions about the police work at
the department as well as showing us aournd. It was a very
interesting experience to look around.

We next visited the Federal Way
Municipal Courts, which is also in the same building as the city
hall. We met Judge Larson there, and he kindly talked about
his job there. Judge Larson was so kind that he let us put on
a gown for a judge and take pictures with him. We had never been
to a courthouse in Japan, so it was very interesting.

We came back to the study center in the afternoon, and
spent the afternoon class learning how to write a postcard to
Japan and telling Laura about holidays
in Japan.
